Line 7: A '''Holy Door''' ({{lang-la\|Porta Sancta}}) is traditionally an entrance portal located within the [[Pope\|Papal]] [[major basilica]]s in [[Rome]]. The doors are normally sealed by mortar and cement from the inside so that they cannot be opened. They are ceremoniously opened during [[Jubilee (Christian)\|Jubilee]] years designated by the Pope, for pilgrims who enter through those doors may piously gain the [[plenary indulgence]]s attached with the Jubilee year celebrations. In October 2015, [[Pope Francis]] ~~broke~~expanded ~~with~~the tradition inby having each [[Roman Catholic]] [[Diocese#Catholic Church\|diocese]] throughout the world designate one or more local Holy Doors during the [[Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy]], so that Catholics could gain the plenary indulgences granted during the Jubilee year without having to travel to Rome. ==History==
